The project, loosely based on his own experiences with social media, will be helmed by Goldberg with writer Eric Siegel and Stampede Ventures' Greg Silverman and Paul Shapiro also executive producing.

Erin will also not be returning, and we appreciate all that she brought to the ballroom. Fans have been rooting for her since she originally competed as a contestant back in 2010, and her signature sense of humor has become a hallmark of the show," said ABC and producer BBC Studios in a joint statement.
